My upbringing has been kind of rough, with an Aquarian mother and a Gemini father. My mother i have come to an understanding with over the years, we communicate quite well. My father however, is a different story.
The main problem is that he wants me to live as "fast" as he does.. He wants me to be "quick-minded" and such, like him. He does not believe in backing up and being positive too much. He may joke around, but sitting down and talking about things in depth like i do is not his way.
This is getting to be a big problem, as i am fiercely loyal to him, i do not want to be disappoiting him, but every time i try (get a job, work as hard as a Taurus can do, which is obsenely hard), it is not good enough. This tremendously devastates my self-estee because i am so loyal. In this area i envy more detached signs like Air or Fire signs.
How do other Taureans deal with this situation? Or anyone with similar experiences?
Thank you 🙂 I will take that with me. I think you are right though. It doesn't so much matter who your parents are, it matters if you will stay true to who you are, and if you want to make the most of that, or if you want to be a slave to your parents...
He has very similar characteristics to your father. The best advice I can give you is to be yourself. Your hard-work, reliability, consistency and dedication will serve him well one day. Geminis will entertain an idea, but Bulls will see it through. My father and I have a business relationship, so trust me, I'm speaking from personal experience.
Don't worry about disappointing anyone.
